Description
Instantly reach the people in your life—for free. Messenger is just like texting, but you don't have to pay for every message (it works with your data plan).
Not just for Facebook friends: Message people in your phone book and just enter a phone number to add a new contact.
Group chats: Create groups for the people you message most. Name them, set group photos and keep them all in one place.
Photos and videos: Shoot videos and snap selfies or other photos right from the app and send them with one tap.
Free calls: Talk as long as you want, even with people in other countries. (Calls are free over Wi-Fi. Otherwise, standard data charges apply.)
Even more ways to message:
Bring your conversations to life with stickers.
Preview your camera roll photos and videos without leaving the conversation--then choose the perfect ones to send.
Record voice messages when you have more to say.
Extra features:
Know when people have seen your messages.
Forward messages or photos to people who weren't in the conversation.
Search for people and groups to quickly get back to them.
Turn on location to let people know when you're nearby.
See who's available on Messenger and who's active on Facebook.
Turn off notifications when you're working, sleeping or just need a break.
Stay logged in so you never miss a message.

Please bring this back!!!
Hello. I have an iTouch 5th G & I have downloaded this messenger app. I would like to imply that you guys please bring back the chat bubble head conversations! That made it soooo much more accessible & easy to reply when I was on a different app! Please bring it back! 😭🙏🏼 I rate this app a 3 because I hate having to go back & forth in order to reply to a message, please bring the chat heads back for Apple!!! PLEASE! I bet most people agree with me, please bring it back NOW. But also keep this app, just please bring it backkkk ):
Better than imessaging
I use this app to talk to my hubby overseas more than my regular imessage app. It's way quicker at sending messages/pics/videos ect. I'm not crazy about the new layout, however. It's annoying/confusing having so many names up on the list. I really only want to see the names of the people I'm currently having conversations with - not suggestions and then have to scroll down for my other conversations that aren't "top 3". Other than that, it's great!
Stop breaking it
Stop trying to fix stuff that doesn't need fixing!! And breaking the app in the process!! Latest update now shows only my friend's name and "Messenger" under it. No "Active Now," "Active 23m ago" etc. Updates before this one gave us the god awful broken up home screen with only 3 recent convos at the top, the ugly eyesore of "favorites" in the middle which takes up WAY to much screen real estate, then they made it worse by adding in "Active Now" section and birthdays section. So now to get to just the 4th person I was talking to, I've got to SCROLL a whole screen. It's RIDICULOUS.
